- Abstract / Summary
- TRANSLATED CITATION: Li Dequan. "A Speech in Honor of the Tenth Anniversary of the First National Midwifery School, 1939." In Dr. Yang Chongrui: Birth Anniversary, edited by Yan Renying. Beijing: Beijing Medical University, China Union Medical University Joint Publishing House, 1990, 154-157 (4pp.) DESCRIPTION: This book memorializes Yang Chongrui, also known as Marian Yang, for what would have been her 100th birthday. It includes original work by Yang as well as contributions from those who knew her and who supported her work for birth control. This speech discussed the history of the First National Midwifery School. The school was set up in Beiping [Beijing] to address the lack of scientific knowledge and practice of traditional midwives and to help remedy the high mortality rate of pregnant women and infants. Yang Chongrui [Marian Yang] urged the government to open such a school, and she devoted her time to ensuring its setup and operation. After overcoming various difficulties, the school proved a success and brought benefits to women and children in Beiping [Beijing]. Besides managing the school, Yang initiated a training program for old-style midwives, in which they learned to perform basic operations for child delivery and use disinfection methods. The school set an example nationwide.
